More than tax compliance
Compliance with tax obligations across the US and Australia often requires careful planning and management to mitigate double taxation. Whilst certain tax structures are favourable from an Australian perspective, they may increase US taxes and compliance requirements. We can assist you in navigating these cross border complexities by:
- Advising on optimal asset holding structures from a US-Australian tax perspective
- Preparing and filing of annual US and Australian tax returns
- Advising on US tax compliance for non-US based structures such as Trusts, Corporations and Self-Managed Superannuation Funds
- Advising on US gift and estate tax considerations
- Liaising with the IRS, US State tax authorities, ATO and
- Working with your other advisors to ensure that cross border tax issues are considered with any investment or business decision.
International relocation
Corporate executives and individuals who are embarking on an international relocation for business or personal reasons need to give consideration to the tax regimes of their home and host locations. Relocations may also result in increased tax compliance requirements for employees, regardless of whether this is part of a secondment or flexible working arrangement. We can assist you with:
- Simplifying your current business and personal investment structures
- The application of relevant tax treaties to mitigate double taxation
- Determining the optimal time to establish residency or domicile in a new country; and
- Local and international employer tax and reporting obligations.
Multi-disciplinary insights into cross-border investments
Investment structures and transactions are often well suited to the tax regime of one country but may result in complex and potentially unintended tax implications in another. Tax rules are subject to frequent changes and careful planning may be required as proposals are announced. We can assist you with:
- US and Australian retirement tax planning (e.g., 401(k), IRAs, SERP/SERA plans and Superannuation plans)
- Ownership structure planning for investments in real estate in multiple jurisdictions
- Capital gain, global estate exposure and gift tax planning
- Providing a dual lens on your current and proposed US and Australian investments
- Structuring and reporting of your US and Australian holdings; and
- Guidance on the optimal choice of investment vehicle from a tax perspective.
